Hilarious, finally the Pirates got back at those no good Islanders! The ball joint does indeed work great as a cauldron/pot, now if only it was Black. Pirates eating Islanders ON! -Tarfful

Very creative and cool creation, as always, you got there SirNadroj! Actually all the Swastika is is an anchient religious symbol seen mostly in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. The Nazi's just tilted it on its side and presto-change-o you have the Nazi Swastika. -Tarfful

There was never a Phase 1.5. No, it's not a minor difference. No fin=not a pilot Now for some counter points: 1- Yes, I did. Did you also notice that the RGS has two clones missing? 3- Isn't that a 212th Battalion trooper? If it isn't it sure looks Orange to me. Yeah, but if you were looking at a p.I Pilot and Commander from across the room what are you going to notice darker paint or a fin? But, your general point makes sense, I'm just saying that the fin part is more noticeable then a paint job. 4- Yeah I know that Nute and his Federation like Brown and Tan, I'm just saying that since the CIS's color theme is Blue and White and that the new stap in 7675 is Blue we need a new BP with blue-ish vehicles, plus the fact that the in the old BP the arms of the regular BD's are still the old versions that we desperatly need a new CIS BP. 5- Well it's a pretty wide spread opinion! I hope it's 7283 Ultimate Space Battle! Can you atleast tell us if it's OT or PT... please? Anticapation for a super rerelease ON! -Tarfful

Goggleson what I meant when I said/typed that a CW BP is inevitable and that Clone Pilots were ON was that since a CW BP is almost a garuntee I wanted the extra troopers in 7676 to be Clone Pilots, not that I wanted Clone Pilots in a CW BP. I mean who needs a an army of p.I Clone Pilots. Thanks Palin. Your project sounds interesting, I hope to see pics soon. Oh, and BTW how many LAAT/i's do you have? How is it a minor difference? Fin or no fin, you might aswell put it movie accurate or non-movie accurate, and in the past TLG has always stuck to movie accuracy. Sure I mean we've had random Jedi and Clones in sets that they didn't belong in but the details on all TLG's minifigs seem to be very loyal to the movies. Reference pics so all can see the not so minor difference between a p.I Clone Commander and a p.I Pilot: -Then why did all the boxes in the backround of the Toy Fair pics say in big bold letters Preliminary? -Yeah I figured that Cody and Rex would be in the Clone counts of 7676 and 7675, respectively. My prior statement was mostly an expression of my thoughts that we needed nore clones in the sets. -How does comparing the Yellow on a p.I Pilot to the Yellow on a p.II Star Corps Trooper help your argument? Also this doesn't have anything to do with the current conversation it's just an observation, the GAR symbols on the CW pilot's hemet are Red but the Ep.2 Pilot's GAR symbols are Black, must have somethin' to do with the series. -CW BP's only seem to be a smart move on TLG's part next year, I mean they're easy to make, cheap, and some people buy hundreds of the current BP's, plus we're in desperate need of a new CIS BP with the Droids having the right arms and the vehicles being Blue, I mean p.II clones fighting TF forces? One more thing, if the CW series is a big hit with the masses, witch it probably will be, it would only make more sense for TLG to turn out as much merchandise as possible about it. -It's not the transportation that for my troops that bothers me it's the fact that the transportation is a crap ship. Wow! Where did you hear that Steff? I find it a little wierd that two sets we haven't even seen pics of yet are coming out before the ones we have seen pics of. What is the big surprise I wonder? Is ther anymore information you can give us... please? Massive posts ON! -Tarfful

Glad I could make you, though I can't take credit for the term Palpy, I've seen it before somewhere on the boards, I just can't remember where. Back on topic, pics of my somewhat smudged army coming very soon... -Tarfful

Where are the review for SR? -Tarfful

I agree, this idea just sounds like a Tie Army with pics, which is not that big of a difference to me. You stole my line! -Tarfful

Why not, it's a very important detail it signifies the difference between a Clone Commander and a Clone Pilot, it's also not that big of a differnce just cut off the fin and presto you have a p.1 Clone Pilot helmet. On another note, to me it's almost invitable that we will get a CW BP so for me it's Clone Pilots all the way!

Wow great work Vader! You just about made a perfect version of the mix between cartoonish Lego style Joker and TDK Joker. My only suggestion would be that the eyes are to big, try making more of a dark smudge around the eyes to get that TDK Joker feel. -Tarfful

Could a mod change the title from " A poll for General Tarful" to "A poll for Tarfful" please? I had a name change for anybody that didn't already know.

Hope you like um'. -Tarfful

Best MOC I've seen all day! It's hysterical. Great use of the crowns for the mosters eyes, they're my favorite detail. -Tarfful

He he, that made me laugh. Your complaining because you only have one, I have two. Back on topic, besides my obvious namesake (Tarfful, a Wookie leader who also helped Yoda escape Kashyyyk) I think I am most like Plo Koon, I have a strong sense of what is right and what is wrong, I am very quiet, but when it comes down to a good old fashion brawl, or lightsaber duel , I'm more then up to the task. -Tarfful... who feels more like a Kel Dor then a Wookie at the moment.

Actually I do, my life is not just SW you know. Also thanks for the internet grammer lesson tropperdavinfelth and blueandwhite. Once again thanks for the comments guys. -Tarfful

Just when I start to believe I'm out of the woods... Sorry everybody, I guess this goes to show I need to double my efforts at becoming un-noobish. On another note thanks for the heads up Hinckley, I will no longer make new topics just because of an URL error unless it has happened for many days in arow and I have reason to believe there is a long-term fault with the said website. Mods you can close this topic now, thanks, as always. *sigh*, I might as well be the eternal noob... Tarfful

Guys, I know that in the preliminary pics, key word preliminary , the supposedly Clone Pilot in the V19 has a fin on his helmet. Gee, I may be a noob, but I'm not stupid. What I meant in my previous statement was that I hope the final version of the Clone Pilot has no fin. On another note I think that the descriptions don't include Rex and Cody because they are included in the Clone count. But then again I could be, and I hope I am, wrong and Rex and Cody will be added to the Clone count of 7676 and 7675 making it even higher, but that's probably just wishful thinking. -Tarfful

A very wacky vig you have there SlyOwl. My only concern is how the SBD is supposed to "eat" the other droids. Anyway the vig itself is aesthetically pleasing and very well built. Great job. On another note, did you say these are your first SW figs? Holy megablocks, well I guess we all have to start somewhere. -Tarfful

I just tried to go to BrickLink.com and I got the "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" message. Is anybody else having difficulty? Of course this happens right when I need 20 helmets for my clones. Ahh, the irony of life... sucks. -Tarfful

Why does everyone keep spelling noob n00b? It's really strange. On another note thank you all for the positive comments, they are all appreciated. -Tarfful

Oky that would be a 91st Reconnaissance Corps trooper. As formy Republic army I have 54 Phase 2s, 4 Phase 1s, and a lot of Jedi. Specifics: 2 Special Forces Troopers (Ones with green marking) 2 91st Reconnaissance Corps troopers (Dark red markings) 6 Clone Pilots 20 Regular Troopers 10 Star Corps Troopers 14 Shock Troopers (10 with black hips, 4 with white) I'm not putting pictures up because of the fact that its in the dead of night here, 1:59AM, and that some of my troopers need replacement parts due to smudging on the helmets. I have no idea how they got smudged, the ink on the helmet is smeared mostly around the rebreather. That means I need about 20 new helmets, and 5-6 torsos. BrickLink here I come! As for my Imperial forces I have aout 15 stormies, 2 Blackhole troopers, 3 TIE pilots, and 4 Imp. officers, 5 Snow Troopers, plus Vader and Palpy. That's just an estimation mind you. Pics of Imperial and Repubic forces coming soon... -Tarfful

Thanks for the news goggleson. It's about freakin' time we had some! I bold-ed the interesting parts. -First of all, only 2 clone troopers in the AT-TE bad form TLG, it takes two just to put one in the cockpit and one in the big turret on top. -Secondly, 4 clone troopers in the RGS, very sweet, that probably means two Clone Pilots to go along with the regular Trooper and Commander Cody. -Thirdly, Asajj's lightsaber can be either a double blade or two single blades, all I can say is bravo TLG you've outdone yourselves. Now if only they made Maul's lightsaber that way. -Last of all, if the Pilot minifigure has a fin I'm gonna be very very upset. Hopin' for some CW BPs to supplement the lack of regular p.1 Clone Troopers ON! -Tarfful

Wow, that is indeed old! Great little scene you got there Grimer. BTW, exactly how old is Old Lorry, and was it an official set? Same goes for the tow truck. -Tarfful

Great capes Lamanda. I especially like the black and white Dragon Masters one and the Crusader's one. I might buy one considering they're good quality and have a very fair price. One question I have though is what are the capes entitled "Demon's Eye" and "Holy Order" from? On another note have you ever thought of doing historically accurate capes or ones from movies or books, like Lord of The rings or Monty Python and The Holy Grail. -Tarfful

Great figs. Katara makes a great Jedi, and the Firebender a very intimidating Sith. My only gripe would be as to why the Firebender Sith has pink lightsaber blades, not very Sith-like if you ask me, but it does add a whimsical factor. -Tarfful

I just saw Sweeney Todd, a great movie if not a little too bloody. -Tarfful

Thanks Sinner, it's much appreciated. To be clear it's not so much my most recent of posts as my semi-recent posts, if that makes anymore sense. -Tarfful
